My life stretches on lonely
_____
A spring that runs over rocks
_____
That never spills into the river
_____
And yet gains in flow and strength
_____
Like ivy lying on the ground
_____
And far and wide no tree in sight
_____
That it could embrace, since it'd lift it
_____
On its way up toward the light
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
And sink into the sands of time
_____
Drink alone from the spring
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
Like a ship on desert seas
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
Like a cloak it settles around me
_____
Soft and heavy, the loneliness
_____
And my blood is calm and cold
_____
Serenity grows inside me
_____
Ravens fly in flocks, the eagle flies alone into the light
_____
And only a fool needs company
_____
I don't need any of that
_____
I want to go down alone and sink into the sands of time
_____
One day rise again, drink alone from the spring
_____
I want to go down alone, like a ship on desert seas
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
So I walk my path alone
_____
And I'm my own best friend
_____
Because there's nothing to expect from the world
_____
That I've ever dreamed of
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
I want to go down alone and sink into the sands of time
_____
One day rise again, drink alone from the spring
_____
I want to go down alone, like a ship on desert seas
_____
I want to go down alone
_____
I want to go down alone
